attempted to reply, but the outburst OF
applause was so enthusiastic that he
stood several minutes holding the Presi-
dent by the hand before he could be
heard. Mr.. Tucker thanked President
Dwight for his noble sentiment and
prayed God to bless the union OF
Connecticut and Virginia and Yale
university. This exchange Of fra
ternal greetings and the striking
manner in which it was carried out Gre
ated the greatest enthusiasm and faYors-
bic comment. President Dwight then
announced that during the year gifts of

SHARP A COMPLETE WRECK
His First Night In jail After the Yerdic
nF flutIfv

His First Night In Jail After the Verdict
of Guilty.
NEW YORK, June 3O.-The verdict in
the Sharp case was reached on the first
ballot. AS Sharp stepped to the pave
meDt on his arrival a. the jail after the
conclusion of the trial he said: "Boys,
now that it is all over, I'll tell you that
1 never gave one penny to Alderman Full
graf or any other alderman, and had no
hand in the bribery of the other alder
men" With this the old man seemed to
break down. On entering the jail he went
to his room at once, where he was soon
Joined by his wife. He moaned
and tossed about restloesly all night. He
was up at 1880 this morning and psrtook
of light breakfast. Mrs. Sharp did not
close her eyes during the long weary
night and looked sick and faUigued this
morning. She does all she can to keep
her grief concealed from Cher husband,
who speaks but little to either her or
Warden Heating and seems q complete
wreck of his former self.

SHARPIH CASE

The lawyers who have the management
OF the Sharp bribery case in hand are
getting well paid for their services, and
it is expected that they will exhaust every
resource in the effort to keep their client
out of Sing Sing. He is paying literally
for his defense, and it ought to be first
class in all respects. At the outset Mr.
Sharp paid little heed to the proceedings
of the trial, and during the opening speech
by one of the attorneys for the common
wealth, the srch-boodler wrapped the
drapery of his own sweet and
spotless innocence around him and
nestled down to a quiet sleep and
pleasant dreams in front Of the jury. As
the case proceeded he grew more restless
and the evidence given by the witnesses
was wanting IN large degree the sopori-
&c elements which abounded so proiusely
in the prosecuting attorneys address.
Indeed Mr.. Sharp manifested no unusual
disposition to indulge in his pleasant
siests as on the opening day; he Kept
awake, very much awake, and, as leaf by
leaf the volume Of his infamy was opened,
he, like some other excellent gentlemen
not so far away, promised "to make q
full explanation. He was going on the
sand himself and testify; he would
show precisely wherein his innocence
bloomed and blossomed. When the facts
in the case were all told, the very elab-
crate and convincing statement promised
by Mr.. Sharp was not forthcoming. He
suddenly discovered that he was nothing
but weak old man, tottering upon the
brink of the grave, who cared little for
the frailties and follies of this life. En-
inent experts, his own family physician
among the number, have found that Mr..
Sharp is suffering from severe attack
of heart disease; that his lamp of life Is
in the draft, and the slightest increase Of
velocity of the winds of fortune will
blow it out; il fact, that the old gentle
mans existence is set on hair trigger,
and the slightest Jar will touch it of and
blow his immortal spirit into eternity.
or course it is expected that his sentence
will be deferred. 1t would be. brutal to
sfflict dying man. He must be given
bail and liberated to die in peace. This
is the latest move on the checkerboard,
and perhaps may prove successful. 1t
amounts to confession of guilt on the
part of the defense, and a plea iUr the
deferring of the sentence. Just how it
Will terminate no one can tell; New York
courts are sometimes peculiarly con-
stituted.

IMMIGRATION.

The Boston Herald wonders at the
changes in opinion wrought by time Ii
says: "Fifteen years ago, when the
subject of emigration was being dis
cussed in the Massachusetts Legislature
with 8 view to the alteration of the head
money laws Of the port Of Boston, one
thing that was stated in the debate was
conceded by all sides. 1t was that every
able-bodied foreigner who came to this
country was actually worth a money
value of $1,000 to it. And now there are
those who seek to put prohibition only
upon all who cannot pay $1,000 for beng
permitted to add this increment to the
capital of the country The Herald
should remember that the Justice of yes
terday is often the Injustice of to-day.
Able-oodied foreigners were worth more
than $1,000 each to US forty years sgo
they were worth very much less thirty
years ago, less yet twenty-five years ago,
and as we believe, absolutely nothing if
teen years age, land now they are positive
detrment to the interests OF the country.
We have already more than we canassim-
ilate, and have not work enough for our
own laboring men. Custom is the law Of
fools, but it too often controls the action
of some quite sensible men. 1t has
always been the custom in the past to
laud immigration, and the idea has be-
come SO strong that our legislators did
not realize that there may be too much of
a good thing. Custom looks to things
that are past and is somewhat blind to
things that are to come. 1t was wise to well
come immigration when it was needed;
1t would be wise to put stop to it now
that it is an injury.
